Frequently asked questions
What materials make up the Vispring Elite and how do they affect daily comfort?
The sleep surface uses a 1,350gsm dual-layer British fleece wool and cotton blend, with a second wool-cotton layer beneath for depth. Each spring is a breathable calico cotton encasement around 1,716 hand-nested vanadium steel pocket springs, giving independent support and a firm edge. The border features wool upholstery with two rows of hand side-stitching for edge-to-edge support.
How does the bed feel and what makes its support unique?
The independent pocket springs respond to localised weight, reducing motion transfer and delivering targeted support. The two-sided, wool-rich surface helps regulate moisture and temperature, contributing to a dry, comfortable feel across different sleeping positions.
Is this mattress suitable for edge-to-edge use and keeps the sleep surface wide?
Yes. The border is upholstered with protective wool and finished with two rows of hand side-stitching along the perimeter to firm the edge and extend the usable sleep surface right to the edge.
What care or upkeep does this mattress require to maintain its feel?
To maintain the fillings, the mattress is hand-tufted with felt washers to prevent shifting over time. Regular turning (if advised by the retailer) can help keep the dual-sided surface balanced for longevity.
Who would most enjoy this high-end mattress and who might prefer something simpler?
This design suits sleepers who value independent support, edge-to-edge stability, and a premium, wool-rich surface. Those seeking a more straightforward, less high-end setup might prefer a simpler mattress.
The sleep surface is upholstered on both sides with a bonded Platinum Certified British fleece wool and cotton blend — a 1,350gsm layer that sits directly against the ticking. British fleece wool is naturally hygroscopic, drawing moisture away from the body and releasing it into the air, so the surface stays dry across temperature shifts through the night. Beneath it, a second layer of blended Platinum Certified British fleece wool and cotton adds depth to the feel without introducing synthetic materials.
The spring system comprises 1,716 hand-nested vanadium steel pocket springs in a King size, each individually encased in breathable calico cotton. That count, distributed across the mattress surface, means each spring works independently, responding to localised weight rather than transmitting movement across the bed. Vanadium steel holds its temper through years of compression and recovery in a way that lower-grade alloys do not. The border is upholstered with protective wool and finished with two rows of hand side-stitching, which firms the perimeter and extends the usable sleep surface to the edge of the mattress. Hand-tufting with felt washers anchors the fillings at regular intervals, preventing them from shifting or compressing unevenly over time.
